But it's to big / heavy for the type of hunting you do? McMillan has this for you. I wish I knew as I ordered an a-3 but this stock sounds perfect for what I wanted to do.
If you get used to and like the type of pistol grip on the A2, A3, A4 and A5, then it's hard to go back to a conventional wrist bending normal pistol grip. So after being asked for it by many users we are just coming out with an A3 sporting/hunting stock. Looks quite like an A3 but with about 1 1/4" drop at heel(instead of 1/2") so you can shoot it standing and sitting, forearm about the same look but has finger groves running along the top so the rifle won't jump up out of your hand like the square sided A3 might when shooting offhand. Will take barrels up to a Remington Varmint or #5 type contour, and is for Remington and Rem. clone type ations. Mold is made, first prototypes are being inletted, and it feels nice. Probably won't be on the web-site for a month or so, but I'll try to get some photos up here as soon as I can.
No adjustments available, it's a hunting stock, and prices like the other hunting stocks instead of the tactical stocks.

(By the way, you guys are the first to hear about this.)
Forgot one thing, the sides of the butt are not flat and parallel like the A3, they are a bit more rounded like the HTG.
The A3 sporter is in the computer and is priced the same as the other hunting type stocks. You can order them any time now with all the normal color and finish options. In standard sporter fill they should run 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 lbs depending on inletting, and are available in EDGE technology with a painted finish and should finish about 1 3/4 lbs (havn't made one of these yet). We have made 4 so far, two are off to an OEM account for evaluation and the other two are being put together in the shop. May get to shoot one next week. I've got a couple more going thru now
